U.S. Officials Believe North Korea, Urged By Russia, Will Conduct Agressive Provocation Before U.S. Election
This really shouldn’t be very surprising to anyone that North Korea would take some kind of provocation prior to the U.S. election:
U.S. officials are bracing for North Korea to potentially take its “most provocative” military action in a decade ahead of the Nov. 5 presidential election, possibly at the urging of Russian President Vladimir Putin, NBC News reported Friday.
Citing six senior U.S. officials, the broadcaster also said that the United States has contingency plans to respond in the event of Pyongyang taking aggressive action in the Demilitarized Zone separating the two Koreas, or shelling South Korean border islands — belligerence unseen since 2010.
“We have no doubt that North Korea will be provocative this year. It’s just a matter of how escalatory it is,” a U.S. intelligence official was quoted by NBC News as saying.
It said that the U.S. officials believe the timing of the North’s provocation could be designed to “create turmoil in yet another part of the world,” as the presidential race is set to be a rematch between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump.

In other words, both NK and Russia want to ensure Trump gets into office by doing whatever they can to help Trump’s chances.

Statiatical analysis of Chinese and Russian election interference clearly showed there was no favoritism.
The purpose was to create disorder and distrust in the system.
However, this year, they all may prefer Trump getting elected.
Those who control Biden seem very much set to start WWIII. America would “win” that right now. This means America would lose the least.
Trump is a dealmaker and not a warrior. He would see being a war president as a failure to be smart and clever.
Sadly, we probably need WWIII, as the national debt, and the financial downward spiral associated with it, seems unmanagable without it.
But you are focusing on the wrong aspect, as usual.
The concern is not what China, Russia, and North Korea want. The concern is what is best for America.
It is better that America does well, even if America’s enemies also get some trickle down benefit.
The alterntive is America does poorly, along with its enemies.
Phycological studies show that most people prefer the second option to the point of self-destruction.
Once you understand that people are mostly dumb and emotional, you can make money with this.
Putin’s puttin’ on the belly fat these days…
